Quick Review
Chea 218 Quick Review
The Chea 218 was an entry-level mobile phone announced in 2003 but later canceled before release. It featured a TFT display with an external monochrome screen for notifications. Supporting 2G GSM networks, it included SMS and MMS messaging, as well as a WAP 1.2.1 browser for basic internet access.
With Java support, four built-in games, and voice memo/dial features, it offered some entertainment and productivity tools. However, it lacked a camera, Bluetooth, and expandable storage. The removable Li-Ion battery provided up to 200 hours of standby time and 2 hours of talk time.
